Florida Reporter

The Epoch Times is looking to hire dedicated and self-motivated journalists in Florida to cover news and features of national interest, crafting stories that are rigorous, authoritative, balanced, and serious.

– Generate and pitch ideas for original stories and features
– Be available to work a flexible schedule that may include nights, weekends, and periodic travel

Job Requirements
